electrical connection.
9. Door Ajar IndicatorThis indicator will illuminate when one or
more door(s) are not fully closed.
10. Glow Plug Light — If Equipped
This vehicle will inhibit engine cranking when the
transmission oil temperature is less than –22° F
(–30° C) and the oil temperature sensor reading indicates an
engine block heater has not been used. The Glow Plug light
will flash during in cold weather for up to 10 seconds. An
externally powered electric engine block heater is available
as optional equipment or from your authorized dealer.
Turning the ignition key to the ON/RUN position illu-
minates the Glow Plug Light, the light will turn off when glow plugs reach the established temperature. You can
start the engine immediately after the light turns off.
A blinking Glow Plug Light (together with a display
message) indicates a failure on glow plugs. Please see
your authorized dealer as soon as possible.
11. Tachometer
The tachometer indicates engine speed in Revolutions
Per Minute (RPM x 1000).

Do not operate the engine with the tachometer
pointer at high RPM for extended periods. Engine
operation over 3200 RPM can result in significant
damage that will not be covered under the New

12. Oil Pressure Warning LightThis light indicates low engine oil pressure. The
light should turn on momentarily when the engine is
started. If the light turns on while driving, stop the
vehicle and shut off the engine as soon as possible. A
chime will sound when this light turns on.
Do not operate the vehicle until the cause is corrected.
This light does not indicate how much oil is in the engine.
The engine oil level must be checked under the hood.
13. Electronic Speed Control Set Indicator Light
This light will turn on when the electronic
speed control is set.
14. Charging System Light — If Equipped This light shows the status of the electrical charg-
ing system. The light should come on when the
ignition switch is first turned to ON/RUN and remain on briefly as a bulb check. If the Charging System light
remains on, or comes on while driving, it means that the
vehicle is experiencing a problem with the charging
system. Obtain SERVICE IMMEDIATELY. See your au-
thorized dealer.
Refer to “Jump Starting Procedures” in “What To Do In
Emergencies” if jump starting is required.
15. Brake Warning Light
This light monitors various brake functions,
including brake fluid level and parking brake
application. If the brake light turns on it may
indicate that the parking brake is applied or
that the brake fluid level is low.
If the light remains on when the parking brake has been
disengaged, and the fluid level is at the full mark on the
master cylinder reservoir, it indicates a possible brake
hydraulic system malfunction. In this case, the light will
remain on until the condition has been corrected. If the

The light also will turn on when the parking brake is
applied with the ignition switch in the ON/RUN posi-
tion.
NOTE:This light shows only that the parking brake is
applied. It does not show the degree of brake application.
16. Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL)
The Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) is part
of an Onboard Diagnostic (OBD) system which
monitors the emissions and engine control sys-
tem. If the bulb does not come on during
starting, have the condition investigated promptly.
If this light comes on and remains on while driving, it
suggests a potential engine control problem and the need
for system service.
Although your vehicle will usually be drivable and not
need towing, see your authorized dealer for service as
soon as possible.CAUTION!
Prolonged driving with the Malfunction Indicator
Light (MIL) on could cause damage to the engine
control system. It also could affect fuel economy and
driveability. If the MIL is flashing, severe catalytic
converter damage and power loss will soon occur.
Immediate service is required.
17. Temperature Gauge
The temperature gauge shows engine coolant tempera-
ture. Any reading within the normal range indicates that
the engine cooling system is operating satisfactorily.
The gauge pointer will likely indicate a higher tempera-
ture when driving in hot weather, up mountain grades,
or when towing a trailer. It should not be allowed to
exceed the upper limits of the normal operating range.

19. Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) LightThis light informs you of a problem with
engine torque (or power) generation. If a prob-
lem is detected, the light will come on while the
engine is running. Cycle the ignition key when
the vehicle has completely stopped. The light should turn
off. If the light remains lit with the engine running, your
vehicle will usually be drivable (although performance
will be limited), see an authorized dealer for service as
soon as possible. If the light is flashing when the engine
is running, immediate service is required and you may
experience reduced performance, an elevated/rough idle
or engine stall and your vehicle may require towing. The
light will come on when the ignition is first turned to
ON/RUN and remain on briefly as a bulb check. If the
light does not come on during starting, have the system
checked by an authorized dealer. 20. TOW/HAUL — If Equipped
This light will illuminate when TOW HAUL
mode is selected.
21. Low Fuel Light

L), this light will turn on, and remain on until fuel is
added.
22. Fuel Gauge/Fuel Door Reminder When the ignition switch is in the ON/RUN
position, the pointer will show the level of fuel
remaining in the fuel tank. The fuel pump
symbol points to the side of the vehicle where
the fuel door is located.

23. Generic Warning LightThe Generic Warning Light will illuminate in
blinking mode if any of the following condi-
tions occur:
• Air Bag Warning Light Fault
• Engine Oil Pressure Sensor Failure
• Parking Sensor Failure
• Water In Fuel Presence
• Fuel Cutoff Intervention
• “Engine Minimum Oil Level”
• “Engine Min Oil Sensor Fail”
• Swivel Seat Malfunction
If the Generic Warning Light is blinking an air bag system
failure may be present, see an authorized dealer as soon
as possible. 24. Air Bag Warning Light
This light will turn on for four to eight seconds
as a bulb check when the ignition switch is first
turned to ON/RUN. If the light is either not on
during starting, stays on, or turns on while
driving, have the system inspected at an authorized
dealer as soon as possible. Refer to “Occupant Restraints”
in “Things To Know Before Starting Your Vehicle” for
further information.
25. Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light
Each tire, including the spare (if provided),
should be checked monthly when cold and
inflated to the inflation pressure recommended
